Our Courses provide participants, whether beginners or advanced, with the opportunity to build on their language skills and gain confidence in a relaxed and creative environment. We develop the student's listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. Our language tutors meet on a regular basis to monitor the learner's progress and modify classes accordingly. We use a wide variety of teaching materials, many of them developed 'in-house', which can be adopted to suit each participant.
We use the communicate approach in all our classes. Our teachers focus on improving the students’ communication skills, mainly through listening and speaking activities and exercises.
Much of the student’s class time is given over to dialogues, role plays, discussions, games, short presentations and listening exercises using authentic sources.
Reading and writing are practiced to improve fluency and accuracy. Vocabulary and grammar is incorporated into the communications activities, and supplementary exercises focusing on specific lexical items are introduced in a structured way.
But the main focus is always on using and developing language to communicate information. Students develop confidence and fluency in a supportive and encouraging environment.
